    Rage Against the Nazi Machine Societal norms dictate that violence is wrong‚ but sometimes it might just be right. For Jewish people living in Europe during the Holocaust‚ this was the case and engaging in violence against those who wished them harm often meant the difference between living to see the next day or not. During the early 20th century from about 1939 to 1945‚ the Nazis carried out their draconian orders by systematically killing off much of the Jewish population from Denmark to Romania

    Prior to World War II the term ‘Crimes against Humanity” was a phrase not often used. When Germany surrendered in 1945 to the allied powers the world was flashed a view from life inside the Third Reich‚ which was not the utopia it was made out to be. Genocides against gypsies‚ the mentally unstable‚ and mostly the Jews were discovered throughout the German state in many concentration camps. The most chilling discovering was those who were responsible‚ not only Nazi leaders but Medical Doctors. German

    Brady Detwiler Art of Nonfiction Professor Hoffman 10/15/14 On “Against Joie de Vivre” Phillip Lopate’s “Against Joie de Vivre” is‚ in a sense‚ an absurd project. The term joie de vivre‚ after all‚ literally translates as “the joy of living”‚ and if we as readers are to take this denotation at face value‚ one must naturally ask—why would one take up such an argument? The title tacitly asserts a nonsensical proposition‚ and presuming that we are convinced by what Lopate writes‚ what then shall we

    Over the years I have developed a distaste for the spectacle of joie de vivre‚ the knack of knowing how to live. Not that I disapprove of all hearty enjoyment of life.

No‚ what rankles me is the stylization of this private condition into a bullying social ritual. The French‚ who have elevated
